RECOMMENDATIONS  ~ WHAT VENUES ARE SAYING
 
🎸As the owner of Lured Market and Grill, we have as many as 5 to 6 bands a weekend, drawing from all the amazing talent in Western North Carolina. I can honestly say that Laurel Canyon East is a crowd favorite, bringing warmth and vitality to some classic folk and rock music. Bringing  a great vibe whenever they play, these folks are excellent musicians and wonderful people. Highly recommend. Paul/Owner
 
 🎸Sophia, heard y’all at Lake Lure a few weeks back. Some out of town friends came to see me and we came across the band by accident. We totally enjoyed the band.  
The harmonies and singing was ahead of most groups you hear out there.  They’ve put time into their show to get the singing that tight.  Song selection is great.  
Met Sophia that day.  Personality plus! I liked them! ~ David Reid
 
🎸It was a great show! Laurel Canyon East put on a great show last night!  They play a wonderfully curated mix of the classics from the 60’s and 70’s that make you want to sing and dance along.  Very positive, friendly and professional! ~ Chris Donochod ~ Owner of Big Pillow Brewing
 
   🎸Hey I’m Bruce with Jay’s Boat Dock and marina. Just wanted to highly recommend Laurel Canyon East. They bring High energy, great sound. They have a collective vibe that is creative and contagious.  They have been an excellent addition to our musical line up this summer and would definitely recommend them for your entertainment needs.  If you are looking for a group that is interactive and accessible with great communication and promotional skills, then Sophia and the guys are exactly what you need.  Five Stars for Laurel Canyon East!
